Clarence Fisher takes a close look at Wikipedia editing in real-time.  He notes that a small act of vandalism was repaired in under 20 minutes.  The article is a great read for Wikipedia skeptics and supporters alike.  He also includes a link to a really cool tool that mashes up Wikipedia edits with a world map.  Not only can you see what is being edited right now on Wikipedia, you can see the originating location of the edit.  Really cool!
